Your UC claim can continue but there will be deductions for your student income during months in which you are treated as receiving it. Therefore what is payable will depend on your circumstances.

The rules around student finance are complicated. Full DWP internal guidance is here

Hi @delise1 Good luck with starting university!  What are you intending on studying?  I hope it goes well.

In addition to the advice received, bear in mind that Disability Rights UK have a free Disabled Students Helpline who you can speak to about any related issues.  

I've moved your post to our Universal Credit category and tweaked the title to help others spot it too.  If you have any other questions, please give us a shout.
